<p>Its basically the direct opposite with my class. We did quite a few Multiple Choice exams, but rarely did any FRQ’s. I recall we only had about maybe 6 Thematic Essays and only 1 actual DBQ the whole year. And even for the thematic essays, apparently in order to “help” us he had us write some of the essays in groups of 3 people…didn’t help at all. </p>
<p>Also, his MC exams didn’t even reflect the style of the questions on the AP test at all. I took a few practice tests before the AP exam, so I didn’t worry much about the MC part.</p>
<p>You guys are lucky. In my class, we did 0 FRQs and 2 DBQs, which were ‘homework’. We never took any MC Review test. On the other hand, we got up to WWI. He did extremely bad this year. Everyone was really disappointed.</p>
<p>that was an interesting test. I did a ton of practice MC tests, but not really any FRQ’s. A lot of the MC questions, like the one about Quakers allowing women to preach, I had seen before. What did y’all put for the one with the poster from England about a ransom-type reward for the capture of people destroying frames? I said Luddites. I did #4 and #5 for FRQ’s, but I think I did a really bad job on my #4, so hopefully I did well enough on the DBQ to make up for it :/</p>
<p>What WAS the answer to the frame question on the MC? I put down that it was suffragete women, b/c my review book said something along those lines … but I’m not very sure.</p>
<p>I put Luddites. They destroyed machines, which connects to the “frames” part. Plus, one of my books said that the police couldn’t find the Luddites who did it, so that would be one reason why the police posted posters and rewards.</p>
<p>Revolting/revolution, balance/equality, and strong governments were the various arguments that were discussed during 19th c. that would help improve european workers’ lives.</p>
<p>That’s probably not the exact thesis I have but… Somewhere along the line.</p>
<p>PLEASE someone tell me if this thesis is right?</p>
<p>The frames one was the Luddites. The poster was from 1811, and the Luddites enjoyed greatest success from 1811 to 1816. The WPSU and the Pankhursts (and other sufragettes, for that matter) didn’t make much political noise until the early 20th century.</p>
<p>smarty, that’s a factual statement, not a thesis. however, there might be nothing wrong with that… maybe they’re just looking for an attempt at a thesis, because most essays won’t have one at all. try looking at the thesis in a 9 essay on ap central and compare it with yours</p>
<p>What? How’s that not a thesis? Haha sorry my class only did 1 DBQ the whole year… So I’m kinda inexperienced on DBQ’s. I thought a thesis had to simply restate the prompt but have to include your answers??? Or something like that…</p>
<p>Damn, the answer to the frames was Luddites, not suffragetes? I could have sworn, and I will swear, now that I look back, that my review book said that suffragetes vandalized. Oh well … that was a question I estimated I would get wrong, as I was very uneasy about it.</p>
<p>how did you guys respond to the “Analyze various ways in which technological developments contributed to the expansion of state power in the
period 1450 to 1600.” for those who did it?</p>
<p>I didn’t restate the prompt cause I know that’s what they WON’T allow but I thought a thesis was a statement that answers the prompt? No? My teacher needed to provide us with more practice D:</p>
